Bring a bucket and a mop.<\/p>\n

The internet is short-circuiting with conservatives crying over Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion\u2019s latest release, \u2018WAP.\u2019 The Republican response to the provocative lyrics and video for the song has been aggressive and slightly shocking \u2013 but it takes more than being offended to censor a song.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

California Republican congressional candidate, James P. Bradley could barely wait 24 hours before categorizing \u2018WAP\u2019 as blasphemy. He wrote, \u201cCardi B and Megan Thee Stallion are what happens when children are raised without God and without a strong father figure. Their new \u2018song\u2019 The #WAP (which I heard accidentally) made me want to pour holy water in my ears and I feel sorry for future girls if this is their role model!\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And on Monday, right-wing commentator, Ben Shapiro, released a video bashing the song and dubbing it a disgraceful product of the feminist movement. Shapiro is quoted as saying \u201c[t]his is what feminists fought for. This is what the feminist movement is about. It\u2019s not really about women being treated as independent, full-rounded human beings. It\u2019s about wet-ass-p-word. And if you say anything different you\u2019re a misogynist.\u201d Almost immediately, remixes incorporating Shapiro\u2019s voice rapping over the beat flooded the internet, adding to the pool of p-word juice that conservatives believe is tainting their pristinely dry and oppressive vision of society.<\/p>\n
